What did Xiao Yun see?
A woman, a rather robust woman with tattered clothes, messy long hair.
The woman is crying.
Sitting in the corner, she sobbed like a mournful ghost.
It wasn't just that this woman was crying that left Xiao Yun speechless. It was because this woman was so huge. Even sitting there, she was a very large blob. What was even more unacceptable was that her voice was extremely, extremely, extremely unpleasant.
When Xiao Yun saw this woman who was even more miserable than herself, she felt a sense of balance. Because of her strange appearance and unpleasant voice, Xiao Yun stood there and stared at her.
The woman seemed to notice her gaze, raised her face, and looked at her with a sorrowful and sad expression.
Emma...
Xiao Yun was so frightened by the other person's face that she took several steps back.
It's so ugly!!!
His face was a mixture of dark, yellow, red, and purple, like a spilled palette!
"You think I'm ugly too, right... You also think I'm incredibly ugly, right..."
The woman spoke, and her voice was a hundred times more unpleasant than when she was crying!
The woman kept muttering this phrase, as if it were some terrible nightmare or curse that had trapped her.
Xiao Yun was terrified and forced a smile, "No...no, you...you're quite good-looking..."
What I said was somewhat difficult to say and went against my conscience.
The woman smiled and looked at Xiao Yun, "You're such a good person, you can see my goodness."
Xiao Yun: "..."
Ignoring Xiao Yun's expression, the woman seemed to have found an outlet for her emotions and said to Xiao Yun, "I didn't look like this before. I used to be very beautiful. My man fell in love with me at first sight and said that he would never let me suffer in this life. We would have seven or eight children and then we could enjoy a life of luxury."
Xiao Yun: How can an ugly woman like you find a man? How blind must that man be to even look at you!
"But, but we haven't had a child in eight years since we got married! I've taken care of the household for him, and I've become a haggard old woman. I'm not as pretty as I used to be, and my husband has started to find fault with me and can't stand anything about me."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yun couldn't help but think of herself.
She and Xu Jianguo had been married for eight years but had no children. During that time, she felt inferior and tormented, thinking it was all her fault.
"I felt so ashamed that I couldn't have children and carry on my husband's family line. So when my husband went out and messed around with other women, I gritted my teeth and swallowed it all!"
Xiao Yun's eyes reddened again; she felt that her experiences were so similar to this woman's...
Xiao Yun looked at that woman with a hint of shared misery in her eyes.
The woman smiled bitterly, “My husband had a child outside the marriage. He didn’t want his child to be someone else’s son, so he brought him home and made me his mother.”
Xiao Yun asked, "Hasn't he divorced you?"
Upon hearing this, the woman's smile grew even more bitter. "My father used to be a leader, to some extent, so he didn't dare to do it. Now that my father is gone..."
Xiao Yun felt even more sorry for this woman.
That man probably only proposed to marry her because of her father's power! That man never loved her at all!
The woman continued, "Since it's my man's child, I could raise it if I wanted. After all, children don't remember things, and when they grow up they'll recognize me as their mother. But who would have thought... who would have thought...! Waaaaaaah!!!"
When the woman got to the point of being heartbroken, she covered her face and burst into tears!
Who came up with this?!
Xiao Yun was extremely anxious and quickly went over to hand her a handkerchief, saying, "Auntie, don't cry, don't cry!"
The woman looked at her resentfully, "I'm only thirty years old... and you call me 'auntie'..."
Xiao Yun: "..."
Uh... I can't tell at all!
"This isn't the time to worry about that, sister. Tell me what's bothering you. I work for a newspaper, and I'll write a report to expose your man's misdeeds!"
"No way! That's my man. If anyone talks about him, I'll never forgive you!" the woman suddenly said fiercely.
Xiao Yun: This woman is hopeless. Your man has been sleeping with other women and brought their child to your home for you to raise, and you still dare to speak up for him!
Xiao Yun said, "Okay, big sister, tell me what's bothering you, and I promise I won't tell anyone."
"What happened next?"
The woman was about to wipe away her tears when she suddenly stopped, ignoring the smeared mess, and continued to wail, "I told you before, my dad used to be a leader, but a few years ago... you know, my dad was ousted from his post, and my husband made me publish a notice in the newspaper severing my father-daughter relationship with him."
“Ever since my father was sent to the cowshed, my husband has been treating me worse and worse. He even talked to that woman about kicking me out of the house… I overheard this…” The woman’s expression grew more and more bitter and desperate.
Xiao Yun felt incredibly sorry for her.
"How could I agree to that? I just wanted to reason with that woman, but do you know what I heard her say?" The woman suddenly looked at Xiao Yun seriously.
Xiao Yun was startled and barely suppressed the urge to slap her. She asked anxiously, "What did that woman say?"
"She said... my husband is infertile, and she gave him money to keep him, so the child was born to another man."
The woman's words struck Xiao Yun's heart like the tolling of a bell.
“I immediately told my husband about it, but he didn’t believe me. He said he was fine and that I was talking nonsense and gossiping… I had no choice but to find a way to expose that woman’s affair with another man. My husband got so angry that he kicked me out…”
The woman covered her face and started crying again.
Xiao Yun was completely stunned.
The man couldn't have children, so the woman had a child with someone else...
Xiao Yun suddenly realized something.
She ignored the woman in front of her and ran away like a madwoman.
The woman spread her slender fingers, looked in the direction Xiao Yun had run off to, suppressed her smile, and stood up.
She was already quite a large figure sitting there, and when she stood up, she was easily over 1.85 meters tall, which didn't seem like the height a woman could have.
She moved her cold legs, calmly turned around, and entered the deserted alley.
Jiang Ci returned home with her two children and saw Zhou Mingli coming out of the bathroom.
He had just taken a shower and was wearing thermal underwear. He was holding a towel and drying his wet hair.
Seeing Jiang Ci, Zhou Yang, and Zhou Miao, she paused for a moment, glanced at the time, and said with a hint of helplessness, "The sun was shining brightly today, so I took a shower and didn't notice the time."
Jiang Ci gave him a second look and said, "It's okay, you dry your hair, I'll cook."
Zhou Yang and Zhou Miao called out "Dad!" and then ran off to the bathroom to wash their hands.
Wow, what long hair!
